The 2016 Travelers Championship continued Friday with Tyrone Van Aswegen, Russell Henley, Marc Leishman and Daniel Berger concluding the second round in a four-way tie for the overall lead at seven under par.

The quartet should not feel too comfortable in its spot, though, as four players are one shot behind at six under, and seven golfers sit at five under after 36 holes. 

Here's the leaderboard after two rounds at TPC River Highlands:



Van Aswegen fired a bogey-free 66 to move up eight spots Friday. His best run of the second round came from Nos. 9 through 11, where he reeled off three straight birdies.

The 34-year-old South African is in prime position to have his best tournament of the year. Van Aswegen has one top-10 finish this season, but it was all the way back at the Frys.com Open in October. He hasn't finished higher than 17th in the calendar year.

Berger is fighting alongside Van Aswegen thanks to a 67 in the second round. He's taken a roundabout path into the lead, as Jonathan Wall of the PGA Tour's official website noted:



Per the PGA Tour's official website, Berger is hitting an astounding 86.11 percent of his greens in regulation. His ability to get onto the green with multiple shots to play with has allowed him to cover up some shortcomings with the putter.

Eventually, Berger will have to start taking advantage of his opportunities on the green if he wants to win, but the week couldn't be going much better for the 23-year-old thus far.

Henley went out with a bang by tying for the second-lowest score of the day with a 65. He moved into a tie for the lead on his final hole by firing a birdie to cap off his tremendous effort. 

The round of the day, however, belonged to Blayne Barber. The Florida native launched himself into contention with a 64 to bring his 36-hole score to five under par....
